please somebody correct me if im wrong or can word it better than me, but i belive;

when you boost or cut a signal you create phase shift. the amount you boost/cut the ...

just jam with it.

it will reveal its charms the more time you spend with it. start with the manual, it talks you througth sampling then turn the knobs and listern.

we'll yea of course i cant do proper mastering at home as i dont have

1 - amazing loudspeakers.

i just read your post again. what i wrote doesn't help at all.

i thinking panning is fine as long as your not panning your bass. panning bass will make the record skip.

high frequcey can cause a needle to jump, but i think it causes distortion more so than skipping as the hf isn't powerful enougth to make the needle jump out of the groove. so it starts jumping up and down within the groove causing hf distortion...but of course if the needle starts jumping up and ...

please could you give me your opinions on paying for mp3's.

i know a lot of dj's buy mp3/flac for playing out but what about albums etc.

thank you
